Mantle fees explained
Mantle transactions are cheap and fast. Here is how gas works, what you pay in, and how to get the MNT you need.
Why Mantle fees are low
Mantle is a modular Ethereum layer-2 that uses a separate data-availability layer, so gas stays very low. You pay a small gas fee in MNT per transaction — far cheaper than Ethereum mainnet, and even deploying a token costs little.
What you pay fees in
All Mantle gas is paid in MNT. A small amount covers deploying a token plus many transfers.
How to get MNT
- Buy MNT on a major exchange and withdraw it to your wallet on the Mantle network.
- Or bridge assets to Mantle and swap for MNT.
- Set your wallet to Mantle — see add Mantle to MetaMask.
Fees when creating a token
Launching a token on Mantle costs the small gas plus any service fee — far cheaper than Ethereum. Try the Mantle token creator or estimate with our cost calculator.
